Took a run at this, using the following strategy: would periodically alt-tab over from my work and hit a 1 or a 0, hopefully thereby subverting a lot of the cognitive machinery that makes us bad randomizers.

Interesting result: machine would always Pass. Yet I don’t see anything time-dependent int he source. Any idea what gives?

Interesting. After 40 moves I was leading 8-4; with a hundred random bits from random.org I was losing 28-31; I took your advice not to spend all day on it.

I’m curious about the scoring, though. From Shay’s comment it seems that “real” score should be derived from something like how often one can make the computer pass, or with alternating rounds trying to match and trying to mismatch.
